I thought what better way to recap what’s been going on in my amazingly beautiful head than to serve up some tasty bullet-time, so here goes….

- I have officially done it! As I mentioned a month or so ago, I was looking for ideas for my audition video for the upcoming Survivor auditions, and since last week was the first round of the open casting call, I created a video and submitted it. Much to my teenage-girl-like glee, CBS has accepted my video and I am now one of 2300 people who will be judged before moving on to the next level of auditions. How cool is that shit? Later on this week, If I’m feeling brave enough, I’ll probably throw up a link to the video here.

- The saga of the gerbils continues. As you recall, I bought Mini-Me 2 gerbils for his birthday in November. Someone needs to explain the birds and bees to me again, because somehow, in the span of 1 month, the 2 became 9. Anyone want a lovable rodent as a pet? No? How about 7 then? Still no? Fuck.

- Christmas with Mini-Me was once again a total blast. It is so unbelievably cool to celebrate Christmas with a small person who still thinks that his presents are being given to him by a magical fat man. I get sad when I think that I probably don’t have many more Christmases left where he’ll still believe that. This could even be the last one. Sniff.

- Yesterday marked my first day back at work in almost 3 weeks. I’m not sure if any of you realize this, but working for a living kinda blows. I’d much rather be doing what I was doing LAST week at this time….namely sitting on the couch in my underwear watching cheesy horror movies filled with naked chicks with naked boobies on Netflix. Instead, I’m sitting here in my office, where I unfortunately am FORCED to wear more than my underwear. It probably explains why I’m such a pissy mood.

- Realizing how much I really DO detest working makes me want to be on Survivor all the more. And let’s all be honest…. Wouldn’t all just DIE to see me running around a tropical island in a loincloth?

That’s all for now, my lovelies. Let’s hope that 2011 keeps us all happy, healthy, employed, and sane.

Congrats on your Survivor thingamajig!I've never watched a show, but I do know that they go to tropical islands, right? If they do, I'll visit! HahaSeriously - that's cool. Maybe you could turn work into "Survivor: Work Edition". Then you could wear a loincloth!

Well, I've seen the video...AND IT'S FANTASTIC!!! Definitely a little something for the ladies and the gay men out there. Our buddy Slyde will certainly be one of the Top 10. Then it's up to us Internet folk to vote him on.

But I'd like to know about the horror films on Netflix you watched. There were boobies?

I know I've been MIA but I do still read my faves - Just wanted to comment that it DOES totally suck when your kid stops believe in the Magic Fat Man. This was my first year and my daughter is 10. I know I probably got away w/ more years than a lot of parents though.

I hope you do get on Survivor cuz I can be like "I know that guy - I mean I READ that guy!" and that would be totally cool.

I hope you make it! How awesome would that be? I am going to think really good thoughts and hope really hard. For some reason this is more exciting to me than when I was going to be on Miami Ink...maybe because I am totally camera shy and would have kind of hated it even though I would have loved it. Good luck! Also? Post the video!

Wow....good luck with your Survivor quest! Hope you make it through...it would be so cool to "know" one of the contestants.If you do get through, you may want to smuggle a few of those gerbils along....they'd be a handy source of food...I'm not suggesting how you smuggle them though :-)
